The evolution of desire Book

The Evolution of Desire is indeed quite interesting. Data shows that in the sexual selection process, humans choose between temporary (casual) and long-term (co-parenting) and use many strategies to attract and keep a mate. For the most part, men want casual sex with a young, beautiful child- bearing female. Women want an older, dependable man with resources in committed relationships. Feminists hated this book, and I can certainly see why, but I can see how applying this type of science to most dating situations might help. Usually humans aren't aware of these processes. The author purports that if knowledge is power, then reading this and applying the concepts to ones' selection process could be seen as a sexual strategy within itself. I have to agree. The data isn't always nice. This isn't a fairy tale. But still... somehow, each and every one of us is an evolutionary success story. Recommend :)
